Virtue Is It's Own Drawback (Virtue-Mongers)

One pops pills. Another gambles. Another lets her mother die alone. Yet these are Bush's virtue mongers.

It was America's virtue mongers (as they concieve themselves) who made George W Bush president. He keeps these core voters sweet by appointing aggressively virtuous subordinates---men whose sole claim to to office, as Bill Maher puts it, is that tey "read the Bible and fuck their wives." (Maher, you'll remember lost his talk show on the ABC network for saying the 9/11 bombers, whatever else, were not "cowards."
